We teach major/important Bible stories and concepts through kid-friendly multi-media (multiple learning styles) workshops. By hearing and experiencing these stories in a variety of ways, children learn using different parts of their brains. One child may learn best through hearing the story (storytelling), another through acting it out (drama, puppets), another through creating something that links directly to the story (the clay bowl in which Jacob offered the stew to Esau in exchange for the birthright). Repetition is needed to create strong neural connections in our brains. From those, other connections can be made, and thus more and more pathways created. But the pathways need to be strongly built through repetition; otherwise they will be lost and learnings become temporary and disconnected.
